Gu Qingshan stepped out of the barrier and looked behind him.
"...The power of the Holy Pillar in my body has been growing. It will not be a problem to resist the attacks of these Asuras."
"But other sword cultivators will be injured."
"In this case, I must also look for those attacks that are more powerful than expected, so that I can further study the blocking method——"
"Walk!"
His body turned into a bolt of lightning and instantly shot up into the sky without knowing where he was going.
Half an hour later.
Somewhere deep in the white clouds.
An island built on the clouds.
Turtle Saint said with interest while drinking tea:
"You want to try and fend off my attack?"
"Yes, I think swordsmen should not only attack, but also ensure their survival rate on the battlefield." Gu Qingshan said.
"Then why don't you learn the art of beginning and ending without end from me?"
As the Turtle Saint spoke, he took out a turtle shell from behind, caressed it reluctantly and continued:
"You enter this turtle shell. I guarantee that as you get closer and closer to it, your defense capabilities will be greatly improved. Then if you put on a suit of armor outside - you will simply not die!"
Gu Qingshan looked at the turtle shell.
If he agrees to this, from now on sword cultivators will all fight with turtle shells on their backs...
That picture is too beautiful to look at.
I’m afraid no one will be a sword cultivator anymore!
Gu Qingshan forced a smile and said: "I appreciate the kindness of my predecessors, but my swordsmanship path will be passed on to people who practice swordsmanship in all worlds in the future. They may not be able to obtain the tortoise shells of my predecessors."
When Turtle Saint thought about this, he couldn't help but sigh with regret:
"Forget it, you want me to attack you so that you can hone your resistance, right?"
"right."
boom----
Gu Qingshan turned into an afterimage and was directly blasted out of the clouds, flying without a trace like a cannonball.
Turtle Saint retracted his fist and sighed: "This is not as simple as creating a sword technique, but creating a path."
"I know."
Gu Qingshan's voice sounded.
Layers of sword light emitted from his body, and he landed gently in front of Turtle Saint.
Turtle Saint looked at him in surprise and said, "You blocked it? It wouldn't be so fast -"
Turtle Saint's voice suddenly paused.
It looked at Gu Qingshan quietly, and its eyes gradually gained some complexity.
"Senior, come again." Gu Qingshan smiled.
"I see... I've actually made it this far. I really underestimate you."
Turtle Saint's expression became serious and he clenched his fists again——
In an instant.
Tens of thousands of fist shadows were superimposed together, and they all hit Gu Qingshan hard.
There was an explosion in the air that penetrated the clouds and cracked the rocks.
Gu Qingshan was knocked out again and disappeared into the sky.
But he saw a flash of sword light.
He appeared in front of Turtle Saint again, his body covered with dripping blood.
However, he seemed unaware and said thoughtfully: "The strength of the sword technique is enough, but my own reaction at the moment cannot keep up, so about 20% of the attacks were not blocked."
Turtle Saint looked at him blankly, and after a long time he said, "Doesn't it hurt if you are like this?"
Gu Qingshan came back to his senses, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, senior. I'm going to adjust the sword technique again. When I figure it out, I'll come back to you for advice."
"Go ahead, you can come to me at any time." Turtle Saint said.
Gu Qingshan turned into a sword light and disappeared in an instant.
The Turtle Saint stood in the clouds, motionless for a long time.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind:
"What's wrong with you?"
A figure appeared.
King Asura!
Turtle Saint did not look back and just asked: "Why are you here?"
"I heard that Gu Qingshan was looking for you to spar. I came over to take a look, but I only saw you standing here stupidly." King Asura said boringly.
"The fight is over." Turtle Saint said.
"Is the fight over? What happened to his path?" King Asura suddenly asked with interest.
Turtle Saint was silent for a moment and uttered two words:
"Inhuman."
"Inhuman?" King Asura said unexpectedly, "I heard those men talking, saying that he was trying out escape methods in the wilderness, and almost no one could stop him - could it be that all my men were wrong? ?”
"Humph, it was only after I saw it personally that I knew what kind of path he had chosen." Turtle Saint said.
"What's going on? Tell me quickly." King Asura said.
"In the previous battlefield against Shuangshu, those who believed in him were healed of their injuries - you know this."
"I know, he is the God of the Earth and can recover quickly."
"He - well," Turtle Saint seemed a little confused about what to say, but finally said: "His whole body is filled with infinite sword light, and these sword lights are destroying his body all the time."
"Is he crazy? Doesn't this mean he is willing to bear the pain of being pierced by thousands of swords?" King Asura said.
"That's not all. He also tried to use these countless sword lights to resist external attacks." Turtle Saint said.
"I understand... Because he is the God of Earth, he can be pierced by thousands of swords and continue to recover at the same time, so he can survive." King Asura said with a complicated expression.
"Yes, he is looking for that balance - how can he turn himself into a sword light without being killed by countless subtle sword lights - he is using his body to feel the pain every moment, Then make adjustments." Turtle Saint said.
King Asura whispered: "No wonder his speed is unmatched and he can withstand all attacks...because he himself is the sword and the edge of the sword."
Neither of them spoke.
for a long time.
King Asura sighed and said: "This is really risking your life to pave a way for the sword cultivators."
"——And only he, as the Earth God, can try this. Anyone else who tries it will be killed on the spot by the sword light that fills his body." Turtle Saint added.
…
By the stream.
Gu Qingshan walked in step by step.
He stood in the stream, closed his eyes, and whispered: "If you want to achieve balance, you have to constantly adjust. If you suddenly encounter an attack like the Turtle Saint... you need to build a stronger sword array in your body-"
Sword rays as thin as hair appeared on his body.
These swords emitted a dazzling light, shuttled back and forth in the void, forming countless tiny sword formations, and then disappeared into Gu Qingshan's body one after another.
In silence, the stream water turned blood red.
Suddenly, Gu Qingshan frowned and said: "Oops."
Snapped--
His entire back cracked open, and a stream of blood mist flew out.
The next moment, all the surrounding mountains, rocks, woods and grass were wiped to the ground.
The uncontrollable sword energy suddenly spread out from behind him, soared into the sky, turned into a raging wind, and blew away all the clouds in the sky.
The sky was clear and blue for a while.
The sun shone on Gu Qingshan's face, and faint traces of blood could be seen seeping out of his pores.
"Looks like I need to make some adjustments."
Gu Qingshan sighed, silently controlling those sword lights, and took them back into his body step by step.
Looking from behind him, I saw a mess of flesh and blood, with bones visible deep inside.
next moment.
Dark golden light surged through his body, and his injuries finally healed.
Suddenly, the Six Realms Divine Mountain Sword appeared from the void behind him.
“Sir, it’s too hard for you to be like this.”
The mountain girl trembled.
Gu Qingshan comforted him: "It's okay, it's just some pain. I can handle it."
Di Jian asked in a deep voice: "So you want to turn yourself into a sword light, or even a sword formation. This is an unheard of method."
Gu Qingshan explained: "This has an advantage - because it is the sword that releases the sword light, and I have become the sword light, then I will naturally carry your power -"
"For example, with the Earth Sword, when I attack in person, I can bring with it the power of your Earth Judgment; and like the Mountain Girl, I transform into a sword light, which can be regarded as the sword light released by you, which means that I can cut off all laws. It is naturally not a problem to escape with one's life in the battle formation."
All the swords were silent for a while.
Even they were shocked by Gu Qingshan's whimsical method.
Gu Qingshan was a little happy and continued: "My sword naturally has this power, so the swords of other sword cultivators also have their own powers. From now on, sword cultivators can use the magical power of the long sword to better attack and defend. , it will not be so easy to die in battle."
A moment.
The Determining Divine Sword suddenly said: "To endure the pain of being pierced by thousands of swords all the time is the same as being chopped alive all the time. Not everyone can bear it. I am afraid that few people will take your path."
"I am now trying, adjusting, and absorbing experience. When my technique gradually improves, I will naturally no longer have to endure such pain." Gu Qingshan said.
Luo Bingli's tone was a little incomprehensible: "——Except for you, even a lunatic would not dare to try this, because at any time, he may be wiped out by the infinite sword light in his body, and his body and soul will be destroyed."
"——Only you are the God of Earth and the God of Death in the Underworld, so you are the only one who can try this." The Delimiting Divine Sword also sighed.
Gu Qingshan clapped his hands and said:
"Okay, no more gossiping. I need to seize the time to learn how to build a sword formation to withstand an attack of the Turtle Saint's level."
He closed his eyes and entered a state of complete oblivion again.
